Upcoming Events

Triathlon Coaching

As a certified ChiRunning® & Spinning® instructor, a Race Director and a Clydesdale athlete, I bring a diverse approach to coaching triathlon. I truly believe that being efficient and effective makes sure you get to the finish line and you cross it with a smile!

ChiRunning

As an avid runner that’s overcome a serious back injury, ChiRunning® is a natural fit for me. It’s really helped me bring joy back to running while making me a more efficient runner. I’ve described it as yoga-like and the "thinking man’s running". It makes you learn that everything truly comes from the core.

Golf Fitness

As a Titleist Performance Institute Certified Fitness Professional, I can look at your physical limitations and see how you can improve your fitness (strength, mobility and stability) so you can improve your golf swing. Making you fitter, more flexible and a better athlete will allow you to become a better golfer and most importantly, enjoy it more!

About Eric

What can I say? I’m a passionate individual who truly thinks that variety is the spice of life!

Don’t let my relaxed impression fool you; I’m very serious about my coaching. I’m a lifelong learner and a sponge when it comes to information that might help me. I’ve been told that I’m great at relating to people and coaching is a great way to transfer some knowledge and experience.
